It was so much fun to do family costumes this year! Last year I kinda dressed to match Maia, but I don’t think I’ve really put together a costume for myself since college.

We wore our costumes to Tom’s work party and then again tonight for trick-or-treating.

Maia got into the trick-or-treating after a couple of houses. She was like, “Try another one!” and, “Baby trick-or-treat someone gives to Maia!” She doesn’t really know about candy yet, so she was most excited about the box of crayons she got from one house.

I started taking sewing classes two months ago. It’s a lot of fun! Two weeks ago I decided at Tom’s urging to make Maia’s Halloween costume. It was a lot of work, but it turned out great, if I do say so myself!

We debuted the costume at the zoo today. Maia is the Chu Totoro (medium sized Totoro) from My Neighbor Totoro. (I dressed up as Mei, and Tom was the giant Totoro.)

We had such a good time at the Peter Pumpkin Patchlast year that we went again! This time we went the weekend they opened, so it wasn’t busy, which suited me just fine. More space in the corn kernel pit for us!
